28.08.2019 12:41

Telegram Passport can significantly reduce the time needed to complete the verification on EXMO. The whole process will take no more than 15 minutes if you have all the necessary documents. If you have already provided your data for Telegram before -
the verification on will take just 3 clicks.

Since many payment systems ask for the verification to Deposit/Withdraw funds, for the convenience of users EXMO has integrated the Telegram Passport option with Sumsub's identity verification function and KYC. Sumsub AI-based solution automates identity
verification and anti-fraud services, providing compliance to relevant regulations and AML screening. A new verification procedure enables a hassle-free online experience by asking users to submit a couple of pictures, reducing the check time to 2
minutes. The important detail is that the service itself does not have access to the data — it is encrypted on the user's device.
